Built in 2004 by Carter and GTM Architects, this Arts and Craft expansive four-level home combines gracious scale, timeless architectural details, beautifully appointed interiors, and exceptional indoor-outdoor living. Set on an approximately 11,000-square-foot fenced lot, the property offers a rare combination of privacy, generous outdoor space, and a flexible floor plan designed beautifully for both everyday living and entertaining.
A flagstone walkway leads to a welcoming Ipe wraparound porch, where a beadboard ceiling and recessed lighting create an inviting setting for morning coffee, outdoor dining, or relaxed evenings with family and friends. Durable HardiePlank siding complements the home’s classic architectural character.

The foyer opens to a formal living room and elegant dining room, both enhanced by detailed wainscoting and generous natural light. A side door provides convenient access to the side yard, while a nearby powder room features a classic pedestal sink.
At the heart of the home is a spectacular, light-filled gourmet kitchen designed for both everyday family life and sophisticated entertaining. The generously scaled kitchen features a substantial center island, granite countertops, custom cabinetry with glass-front accents, and an impressive suite of premium appliances, including a five-burner cooktop, Thermador double ovens, Sub-Zero refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher, and Dacor microwave. The adjoining breakfast area offers a comfortable space for casual meals and features a charming window seat and dedicated desk area, ideal for homework, household organization, or working from home. A thoughtfully designed mudroom provides convenient access to the main living areas and a direct connection to the detached two-car garage.

The spacious family room is warm and inviting, centered around a gas fireplace with a handsome mantel and hearth and complemented by custom built-in bookshelves. Windows fill the room with natural light, while double doors open to the Ipe deck, creating an effortless connection between indoor and outdoor living. The deck provides ample space for dining, lounging, and entertaining.

Beyond the deck, the beautifully landscaped grounds create a private and peaceful retreat. Mature trees frame the property, while the expansive, level, fenced side yard is a true highlight—offering exceptional space for entertaining, play, gardening and pets all while providing an unusual degree of privacy.
The detached two-car garage is accessed from the rear of the property and offers an exceptional bonus: a substantial finished space on the upper level that can be used as a home office, studio, gym, guest space, or creative retreat.

The second level features four generously proportioned bedrooms, including a luxurious primary suite. The spacious primary bedroom offers two large walk-in closets and direct access to a private deck. The primary bathroom features an oversized tiled rain shower, Jacuzzi tub, dual vanities, tiled floors, linen closet, and private water closet.
A spacious secondary bedroom features its own en-suite bathroom, providing an ideal private retreat for family members or guests. Two additional bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bathroom, creating a comfortable and functional arrangement for family living. A dedicated laundry and utility area, complete with a new washer and dryer, adds convenience.

The third level, featuring brand-new carpeting, further expands the home’s versatility with two generously sized rooms—one bedroom and one flexible bonus room—along with a full bathroom and abundant storage. This private level is ideal for guests, an additional bedroom suite, a home office, creative pursuits, or a dedicated retreat for family members.

The finished lower level adds another inviting dimension of living and entertaining space. Brand-new carpeting and attractive beadboard detail enhance the expansive recreation room, which offers an ideal setting for movie nights, play, gatherings, and casual entertaining. A second fireplace adds warmth and character. This level also includes a generously sized seventh bedroom with a closet and a full bathroom, creating a comfortable private retreat for guests or other household needs.

Additional features include newly refinished hardwood floors on the main level, fresh interior paint, new garage doors, a gas grill that conveys, a 75-gallon gas water heater installed in 2021, sump pump, two-zone heating and cooling, central air conditioning, and a new upper-level furnace.

Ideally situated in Glen Echo Heights, the home offers convenient access to the Capital Crescent Trail, C&O Canal Towpath, Glen Echo Park, Westbard Square, The Shops at Sumner Place, and downtown Bethesda. Enjoy nearby dining, shopping, recreation, and cultural attractions while coming home to a private and peaceful residential setting.

With six bedrooms, five full bathrooms and one half bath, multiple living and entertaining spaces, abundant natural light, beautifully appointed interiors, an expansive level fenced yard, a detached two-car garage with additional flexible space, and an exceptional Bethesda location, 6012 Walhonding Road offers a rare combination of elegance, comfort, privacy, and versatility. Thoughtfully designed for the way people live today, this distinctive residence provides an exceptional backdrop for gracious entertaining and relaxed everyday living, all just moments from the best of Bethesda.
